"Grandpa Wu, you and Xiao Li should go down and rest first!" Mo Zitu said to the old man.
"Yes! Master!" the old man responded, turned around and left with the little girl.
"I believe you already understand this matter! What are your thoughts?" Mo Zitu looked at Yu Chen and said with a smile.
Yu Chen looked at the leaving figures of the old man and the young man and suddenly smiled and said: "I already know your secret! Are you afraid that I will tell it out?" After saying this, Yu Chen leaned on the stone railing, looking at ease and leisurely.
, not worrying at all that the other party will be disadvantageous to oneself.
"Haha! Of course I'm not afraid! Because you don't know how!" Mo Zitu said confidently.
"Oh? Haha! How do you know I don't know how?" Yu Chen asked with interest.
"Because I really can't think of a reason for you to say it out! It seems like you won't gain anything by saying it out! The most important reason is because you are here!"
"'I'm here'? Haha! How can you say that?"
"You are willing to follow me here for a little girl I have never met, and sneak into my villa to appear here. From your behavior, I conclude that you are not an unrighteous person. And you have also discovered that I did not do anything
What a shameful thing, so I believe you won’t tell anyone!”
"Haha! You trust me not to tell anyone! Then do you know who I am? Why do you conclude that I am not someone sent from your family?" Yu Chen asked with a smile.
Mo Zitu chuckled, "Although I don't know who you are! But I can be sure that you are definitely not someone sent by the family, let alone the son of the imperial family. Although my intelligence is very poor! But I am still confident at this point.
Yes! If I guessed correctly, you should come from a certain family outside the imperial capital, or perhaps, be the apprentice of some outsider. But no matter who you are, I can be sure that there is no relationship between you and me.
Any contradiction! Although I don’t know why you came to the imperial capital, I know that you will not betray me! Right? What’s more! With your current age and strength, your future achievements will probably not be inferior to mine!"
"Your analysis is quite thorough! Haha! Your future achievements may not be inferior to yours? If I'm not mistaken, you should be a non-practitioner, right? And you..."
Before Yu Chen finished speaking, Mo Zitu suddenly swayed and suddenly came within a foot of Yu Chen. Yu Chen was startled by Mo Zitu's sudden move and subconsciously reacted defensively.
"Don't be nervous! Am I hiding it well enough?" Mo Zitu chuckled.
"What a fast speed! I didn't expect you are also a cultivator! And you are also an intermediate warrior!" Yu Chen said in surprise. Yu Chen never expected that this Mo Zitu was actually a warrior, and an intermediate warrior at that. His age.
He is only fifteen or sixteen years old at most, but he has cultivated to the level of an intermediate martial artist, which is no worse than that of Li Qingxue! Both of these two people should be regarded as rare geniuses in a century, and they have only been in the imperial capital for a few days.
! I met two geniuses! When did these geniuses become so worthless? Yu Chen thought in confusion.
"You must be curious why you didn't realize that I am also a warrior before, right?" Mo Zitu said with a smile.
Yu Chen nodded. Yu Chen could judge the cultivation level of many cultivators based on their breath alone. But this time, Yu Chen didn't even notice that the other party was a cultivator. He was really confused.
"Because I, like you, have an item that conceals the aura of a cultivator!" Mo Zitu said, reaching out and shaking his left hand, and pointed at the dark red ring on his index finger.
So that's it! It must be because of that ring. They couldn't sense that I was also a cultivator, and they seemed to think that I was using items to cover up my aura, but that's fine! Yu Chen thought to himself.
"That's it! What if...I still won't join you?" Yu Chen said with a smile.
"Haha! Although you are young, your mind is extremely mature and stable. I have changed my mind. How can my small manor accommodate you! If you leave, I will not stop you in the slightest.
But...before I leave, do you have the courage to have a meal with me?"
When Yu Chen heard what the other party said, he looked up at the sky. It was already past dinner time, and he was really hungry. The other party obviously guessed that he had not eaten all the way. Thinking of this, Yu Chen grinned and said:
"Why don't you dare? I just don't know if your village has good wine?"
"Ha ha……"
"I know you! Cheers!" Mo Zitu raised his glass again.
"Okay! Do it!" Yu Chen had already drank a large jar of wine, but he still refused anyone who came. He raised his head and drank again. Although this wine is not as good as Yuqiong and Hongye Ning, it is still considered top-grade in this world.
, Drinking is more important than talking to each other. Yu Chen already knew about Mo Zitu. Mo Zitu didn’t hide anything anymore and told Yu Chen completely about his situation. Yu Chen actually admired this Mo Zitu.
of magnanimity.
Mo Zitu's experience is indeed somewhat similar to that of Yu Chen. They are both victims of internal fighting within the family. Although the Mo family is not as good as the four major families and the newly rising Li family, the Mo family is still considered a famous family in the imperial capital.
One of the aristocratic families.
When Mo Zitu was five years old, his parents took Mo Zitu to visit relatives in Tianhong City. They were assassinated on the way. His parents were both killed. The old servant Zhao Bo managed to escape with Mo Zitu and returned to the imperial capital. Mo Zitu
His grandfather Mo Zhong was furious when he learned that his son and daughter-in-law had been assassinated. A turmoil arose throughout the imperial capital, but no clues were found. However, Mo Zitu knew who the person who assassinated them was.
"They hid it from the old man, thinking that what they did was very clean, but with Uncle Zhao's unremitting efforts, they still found clues!" Mo Zitu took a sip of wine and continued: "If it weren't for my father hiding the cultivator since I was a child
I'm afraid they won't let me go! Now that I have the identity of one of the eight dandies in the imperial capital, haha! They don't even bother to pay attention to me, an idle dandy!"
"Haha! What happened to you and me is so similar, we are really the same fallen people from the end of the world! Come! Drink!" Yu Chen smiled bitterly and couldn't help but think about the situation when he escaped from the imperial capital seven years ago.
"'How similar'? Could it be that Chen Yu, you too..."
Yu Chen nodded heavily and frowned slightly.
"If it's not convenient to say more, then don't say anything!" Mo Zitu said with a smile when he saw Yu Chen frowning.
Yu Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Zitu! Forgive me for not telling the truth now! Because once this matter is told, it will be neither good for you nor me. This matter... is too involved!"
It is indeed very involved. The four major families, the Long Family, and the most defiant cultivation genius in the empire, Long Jiankong, were accidentally killed in battle, and no body was left in the capital. This incident aroused the wrath of Emperor Zikong. Just imagine, the commander-in-chief of an army
How could an assassination be possible without internal support? It would be impossible for even a saint-level expert to assassinate the commander of an army among millions of troops.
A million-strong army stretches for nearly a hundred miles. Whether it is camping, marching, or fighting, the commander's camp is kept secret. Even a saint-level powerhouse will never be able to find it. And once the identity is exposed, even a saint-level powerhouse will not be able to find it.
Even those who are killed will have to suffer life and death. You must know that being surrounded by a million-strong army is no joke. It doesn't matter how strong you are! Even if you are a holy master, how many tens of thousands can you kill?
Although Mo Zitu was curious, he also knew that Yu Chen had a reason that he couldn't tell, "For the sake of our same fate, do it!"
Yu Chen didn't hesitate at all, picked up the wine glass and said: "You really should do it, and three glasses in a row!"
"Three cups in a row? Haha! Okay! Just three cups in a row!"
…
"Brother Zitu! You grew up in the imperial capital, so you should know the imperial capital very well, right?" Yu Chen asked.
"Haha! I do understand. If there was no hatred in me, I would never be able to understand this in my life! The imperial capital is really too big!" Mo Zitu smiled bitterly.
"The entire imperial capital is divided into thirteen districts. The outer city has eight districts, namely east, west, south, north, southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest. There are five districts in the inner city, and the most central one is the Imperial District.
, the Huang District is surrounded by Huangdong District, Huangxi District, Huangnan District and Huangbei District! Among them, the Sima family is the head of the Huangdong District, the Chu family is the head of the Huangxi District, the Xiang family dominates the Huangnan District, and the Long family is the head of the Huangdong District.
The head of the North District! Except for the four major families in the imperial capital, most of the other families are scattered in the eight districts of the outer city!
Each of the thirteen districts is ridiculously big. I believe you have already felt it. If you follow the walking speed of ordinary people, you will not be able to walk from one district to another in a day!"
Yu Chen nodded and couldn't help but be shocked by the hugeness of the imperial capital. At the same time, he was secretly glad that he had met Mo Zitu. If he had walked around slowly, he didn't know how long it would have taken him to get familiar with it! The last time he left,
That girl Qingxue was so drunk that she didn't inquire about the layout of the imperial capital. This time she happened to make up for it at Zitu.
"I came to the Imperial Capital to find someone on my master's orders! Can Brother Zitu help?" Yu Chen said.
"You and I are so close, so don't be polite. Who are you looking for?" Mo Zitu said to Yu Chen.
"Haha! A man named Pado! Brother Zitu, have you ever heard of him?" Yu Chen said as he took out a small brown metal tag from his chest and handed it to Mo Zitu.
Mo Zitu looked at the sign Yu Chen handed over carefully for a while.
"All living beings! They are all in the sky! What a domineering word!" Mo Zitu couldn't help but say.
"Pado! Uncle Zhao, have you ever heard of this person?" Mo Zitu said to Uncle Zhao behind him.
Uncle Zhao frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head, "I don't remember this person! Could it be that he is a master hidden in the imperial capital?"
"A master is for sure! And he must not be an ordinary master!" Yu Chen said firmly.
"Uncle Zhao! Please start tomorrow and send someone to investigate this person in the 13th District of the Imperial Capital! We must find him in the shortest possible time!" Mo Zitu said.
"Yes! Master!" Uncle Zhao nodded.
"Brother Zitu! The imperial capital is so big, how can we inquire about it?" Yu Chen asked.
"Haha! Don't worry! Although my people are not many in number, they are all in the lively places in the thirteenth district, such as various restaurants and gambling houses..."
…
In a luxurious manor thirty miles east of the imperial capital, a young man wearing a white brocade robe and a high bun was sitting by the pool leisurely fishing. The young man looked about twenty-four or five years old and had a long hair.
He is extremely handsome. His eyes are like cold stars in the dark night, shining with dazzling light.
The three old men looked at each other, filed into the back garden, walked gently behind the young man, and stood in a row respectfully. The young man seemed not to notice and continued to catch his fish.
